Favorite Pieces from The Devil Wears Prada 2 x Scoop Collection at Walmart

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

The world premiere of the movie, The Devil Wears Prada 2, was on Monday, April 20, 2026. Due to the popularity of the first movie and the amount of time it took for the sequel to come to fruition, it looks like The Devil Wears Prada 2 will be a popular movie. Also, it looks like there will be merchandise inspired by the movie for fans to buy.

One of the tie-in collections and merchandise with The Devil Wears Prada 2 movie is with Walmart’s in-house clothing brand, Scoop. The collection includes clothing, shoes, jewelry, and accessories. The clothing has a business casual style and would be great for the office and going out after work.

After looking through the collection, I decided to pick my favorite pieces from the collection and show them in a post. As of the publishing of this post, some of the sizes and colors of the clothing are sold out. Keep this in mind before shopping for the pieces in this collection!

All product photographs used in this post are from the product listings on Walmart’s website. The photographs have been edited by me for this post. This post is not sponsored and all opinions are my own.

Fragrances I Want to Try at Ulta Beauty- April 2026

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Every year, new fragrances are released. Sometimes I like them, sometimes I don’t. This year, I really like several fragrances that have been released.

Whenever I found new fragrances I liked, I would write a post about my favorites. I haven’t done this in quite a while due to my dislike to most of the new fragrances that were released. Now that there are new fragrances I like, I decided to bring this back.

I wanted to share my favorite fragrances from specific stores. Some fragrances are available to purchase at those stores, so I wanted to dedicate favorite fragrance posts to the stores I normally shop at. For the first store, I will talk about the new fragrances I like from Ulta Beauty.

There are Too Many Camping Tents to Choose From….

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Right now I am on a roll to do research into which camping tent I want to buy. I already mentioned in a previous post I want to buy either a tent or a canopy to enjoy my back yard… and to keep the bugs away. I still am very interested in buying a canopy, but after some thought, I think a better investment would be to purchase a tent first. That way I can use it as a tent and a canopy… if I buy the right tent!

I have been browsing different websites for affordable tents including Target and Amazon, but it seems my favorite tents are a part of Walmart’s Ozark Trail line of camping gear or are available at Walmart. Even though I know the kind of tent I am looking for, I am very surprised by how many tents there are to choose from!

The Search for Camping Gear for At Home Summer Fun

Published on by essieofwho1 Comment

Summer is coming soon. I am both excited and nervous about summer this year. I am excited about the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Yet, I am nervous because I live in Arizona, where the temperatures are hot during the summer months.

Since this summer is a special one, I wanted to start preparing for it now before everything is either sold out or impossible for me to afford. I don’t need much, but I do need some camping equipment.

Promchanted by Morgan Matson Book Review

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

In 2024, a new book written by Morgan Matson was published. The difference between this book and her previous books was this book was published by Disney and is inspired by Disneyland and Disney’s movie, Sleeping Beauty.

The book, called Promchanted, was a book I was very curious about. I didn’t know if I would like it or not, but I decided to purchase a copy of the book and read it.

Since then, a second book was published, Gradchanted also by Morgan Matson. I also purchased and read that book, but, since Promchanted was published first, I decided to write a review about Promchanted before Gradchanted.

Reflections on a One Year Shift of My Shopping Habits

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Around this time of the year, I am normally shopping for many things. Some of these things are normal things that I need, but wear out over time. They include clothing, shoes, and a new purse. I also try to shop for home decor and seasonal decorations. Yet, for almost a year, my shopping habits have changed dramatically.

I noticed it near the end of last year, but it wasn’t until January of this year when I really began to notice. At first, I didn’t know why this happened, but over the past few months I began to realize the reason why my shopping habits have changed.

A Rant about K. L. Walther’s Books with Taylor Swift References in Them

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

There has been some topics I wanted to write posts about, but never had the nerve or courage to write and publish. One of the posts is about how many Taylor Swift references in books that I’ve been reading. I don’t know why, but there are way too many references to Taylor for me to not notice… or form very strong opinions about.

I’ve been holding back because I’ve had some problems with Swifties in the past. (I don’t want to talk about it online, but I will say it didn’t happen online. It happened in real life and boy, the ones I met were not that nice.) Still, I’m at the point in time when I am so annoyed by these books I’ve been reading that I need to vent.

Books I Read and Finished in March 2026

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

After spending the month of February not reading as much as I planned, I got the urge to read again near the end of March. I had some time to spend reading, so I began to pick up books I wanted to read and read them.

I ended up reading six books during the month of March. Three of the books I finished and three I didn’t. Even though I wanted to finish more than three books, I didn’t have the time or the energy to dedicate to read the amount I want to. So, I’m happy to have finished the three books I did!

5 Music Festivals I’d Like to See

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

It’s that time of the year when one of the biggest music festivals, Coachella, returns. Although there are many music festivals happening all year round, April is the time of the year when I pay attention to them. Originally, it wasn’t for Coachella, but for a more local music festival that happens every April. (I’m not going to say the name of it for privacy reasons. If I say it’s name, you’ll know the area where I currently live!)

Since this is the time of the year when I think of music festivals the most, I wanted to write a list of my top five festivals I want to see. These are not the only music festivals I want or am willing to go to, but right now these are the top festivals I would like to attend right now. Also, I’m not going to include the music festival that is held in my area on this list.

Daily Writing Prompt: When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

When I started this blog in 2017, there are several post ideas that I keep thinking about but always decide to not write. One of these post ideas is what I wanted to be when I grew up.

Recently, I found a daily writing prompt about that same subject. After thinking about it for a while, I decided it is time to write a post about what I wanted to do when I grew up.
